Emerald crabs will eat Acropora, for what it's worth. After I found them crunching off growth tips I vowed to never again put them in a reef.
I don't know what is going on with your coral though. Can you get a better photo of the affected areas?
As long as you're feeding your tank emerald crabs shouldn't eat any corals. They may turn to corals as a last resort, however they most likely were picking at dead or dying parts of the coral. As scavengers they will consume dying corals.
